   These four books! Just look at the ratings! 1. My top 2 favorite BL novel! Very exciting! The protagonist is a hardworking, ambitious genius, not a one-dimensional character. The main couple is sweet, but the pacing isn't too fast. There are two male-male couples and one GB couple on the side. Anyway, it's very good! 2. This one is also good! The main character is sharp-tongued but down-to-earth and doesn't get jealous for no reason. The side couples are four pairs of friendships ✓ Romance ✓ The emperor is loyal and considers his son. 3. This one is really good!! It's not just about redemption between couples, but also redemption between friends. The writing is so good, unlike Tomato's usual style. It's exciting throughout, and it's rare to find a book that makes me cry so much, but it's not angsty! In short, it's very good!

    The first book has very distinct personalities for each character, and the middle part was so heart-wrenching that I cried buckets while reading it. The storyline is very complete with many foreshadowing elements, and there are many possible pairings. The second book is a transmigration + demon-catching + original male lead + 1v1 + bickering + developing feelings over time + female lead's growth + a small ensemble cast. (No female rivalry, there will be beautiful friendships between the girls! [A studious and lively little flower fairy v a sharp-tongued and righteous demon hunter]) "Yan Qing, have you ever heard a poem?" The girl's eyes were as bright as the moon, her pupils reflecting the boy before her. Her lips curled slightly, and a blush rose on her cheeks as she softly recited: "The mountain is high, the moon is small, the moon is small, how bright it shines! I have someone I miss far away, and if I don't see them for a day, my heart will be restless." Yan Qing: I have already become your defeated opponent.

    Haha, these two books are absolutely hilarious! They're so funny and hilariously silly, with a lighthearted and absurd writing style. The female lead is kind of cheeky and not at all saintly.

    All of these are ensemble novels. The first and second books are by the same author, and their ensemble writing is superb. There's also a decent campus ensemble novel. I won't say much about the third book; it's already great since it came out, and I'm currently following it. The fourth book was my starting point for ensemble novels, and after finishing it, I can only say that Fufeng is a story I can't let go of. The fifth book, Ye Qiao, and the sixth book, Lin Du, are arguably the pinnacle of ensemble novels; you'll see these two in almost every book recommendation list. The seventh book, Sheng An, is an ensemble novel about saving the country in a post-apocalyptic world—a story of righteous individuals. Those interested can check it out.

    These are two books that I really like and am currently reading. The first one has a very vivid and unique cast of characters, each with their own distinct personality ヾ(◍°∇°◍)ﾉﾞ. The second one is really good overall; it elevates the story, showing how a single spark can start a prairie fire, and it's quite enjoyable. Anyway, I highly recommend it (≧∀≦)ゞ. Both are non-romantic.
